Robert Hartelman from restaurant C\u00e8pes in Otterlo presents an ode to the koolvis, which he combines with Dutch shrimp, anchovy, and vegetables.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Koolvis: Delicious and Affordable<\/h2>\n

Koolvis has a somewhat dull reputation, but that is undeserved. With this fish \u2013 which is related to cod (encompassing whiting and flounder as well) and is found in the Atlantic Ocean \u2013 you present your guest with a flavorful and affordable fish dish. There are 2 types: black and white koolvis. We sell the white (pollack) frozen; for more gastronomic use, there is the fresh black koolvis, recognizable by its brown\/dark gray back. Both the white and the black types are MSC-certified. <\/p>\n

Koolvis in the Kitchen<\/h2>\n

Koolvis contains little fat and is a good source of Omega-3 fatty acids. Its flavor is mild, which makes it accessible and quickly appealing to the guest. The fish flesh of the black koolvis has a somewhat coarser texture and is a bit drier and softer than that of cod. Like cod, it lends itself to almost all methods of preparation\u2014from stewing to frying, steaming, roasting, and deep-frying. \"\" <\/p>\n

Robert Hartelman, restaurant C\u00e8pes, Otterlo<\/h2>\n

At hotel De Sterrenberg<\/a> in Otterlo, chef Robert Hartelman (32 years old) takes charge of restaurant C\u00e8pes<\/a> and everything food-related in the hotel. He previously worked at, among others, Hotel de Wereld in Wageningen, Villa Copera in Tolkamer, and De Beukenhorst in Winterswijk. At C\u00e8pes \u2013 which has been awarded a Bib Gourmand by Michelin \u2013 Robert cooks with his brigade in tune with the seasons and using many regional (Veluwe) products. In addition to restaurant C\u00e8pes, De Sterrenberg \u2013 which was renovated two years ago into a beautiful and comfortable four-star hotel \u2013 has 44 hotel rooms, conference rooms, and a wellness center. <\/p>\n

More with Koolvis<\/h2>\n

Robert loves working with koolvis. \u201cIt is so easy to work with luxurious products like turbot, but it is exactly a challenge to create a delicious dish with less obvious fish varieties. Chefs should step away from the well-trodden paths and work more with fish such as koolvis. In addition to a warm preparation, koolvis also lends itself well to raw processing, or marinating in sweet and sour, \u00e0 la ceviche, so you get a refreshingly tasty dish. For warm preparations, I prefer steaming, poaching, or breading and deep-frying.\u201d <\/p>\n

High Level of Service<\/h2>\n

Robert has been a customer of Driessen for five years and is very pleased with the service. \u201cIn a larger company like ours it is great that Driessen can deliver all fresh products on a daily basis. I\u2019m always called by the people from the fish and meat department to discuss what is needed and what is affordable at that moment, and the account manager visits every month. Driessen is flexible, customer-oriented, and collaborates with you, and that is exactly what you need as a chef.\u201d \"\" <\/p>\n

Koolvis, Dutch Shrimp, Potato Salad, Anchovy Vinaigrette<\/h2>\n

Robert inspires us with a roulade of black koolvis, combining potato salad, Dutch shrimp, dill cream, and flavors of anchovy that lend a certain heartiness to the dish.
\nKoolvis fillet is tied into a roulade that is steamed at a low temperature in the oven. The plate is further garnished with potato cubes, Dutch shrimp, and dollops of dill cream. The vegetable garnish is adapted to the season and may include, for example, (head) lettuce, land cress, watercress, carrot ribbons, and a brunoise of sweet and sour cucumber. The dish is finished with an anchovy vinaigrette, anchovy powder, and a crisp rice paper element.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
